This Website routinely collects information about its Visitors, Subscribers, Members, and Customers. This information is obtained in various ways, such as:
- INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM REGISTRATIONRegistration means that the Visitor, Subscriber, Member or Customer takes active steps to communicate or transmit information to this Website. This can include names, home and business addresses, email addresses, Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and mobile/landline/business/personal telephone numbers provided during Registration. This information may also include pages or ‘pop ups’ where you register for a newsletter or subscribe to a mailing list; it can include your participation in visitor surveys; it can include requesting information from the Website via email, mail, or courier; it may be from joining an affiliate program or other membership organization, paid or unpaid; it may be from ordering a product.
Occasionally complete credit card information may be provided to the Website via a fill-in form rather than regular secure merchant service processing. This information is kept at the highest level of security and is never divulged to anyone except the merchant service provider or for the purpose of communication with the Customer.
- INFORMATION OBTAINED DURING ONLINE ORDERING OR PURCHASE
Online ordering via SSL encrypted communication provided by shopping cart services supporting merchant service companies like Visa and Master Card provide information to the Website but do not include complete credit card numbers. In the process of online ordering, the Website collects, name, address, city, state, email address, phone number, CVV2 (back of card) number, and, occasionally a Member password from the Customer. You should consider all this information available to the Website. This information is used to deliver the product, but under the Purchase Agreement you also approve its use for general solicitation purposes.
- INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM SITE USE
Visitor’s Site usage (e.g. browsing history, search terms, number of clicks, referring/exit pages, date/time stamp, time on Site), may also be collected. Visitor’s products and services viewed, including advertisements for such products and services, computer type, operating system, platform type, and internet service provider information may also be collected.
- INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM VISITOR INTERACTION WITH BANNERS, POPUPS, OR SITE ADVERTISERS
Visitors clicking on banners or pop-ups or hyperlinked advertising, appearing on this Website must assume that information is being collected about them by third parties.

This information is not usually of a personal nature, but it may help define your viewing habits and product preferences even though the Website may or may not have any idea who you are.
“Cookies” is web jargon or bits of computer code placed on your hard drive. Websites use this to keep you “logged in,” to keep track of search criteria, to monitor use, to password protect use of the Site or use of products sold by the Site. Cookies can also be used to obtain information about your computer configuration or your computer usage.
Cookies can be used to electronically gather information about you. Again, it may or may not be personal information, but it is information and by using this Site you are expressly giving permission to use “cookies” and to use the information gathered from such.

If you use this Website without changing your cookie settings, you are consenting to receive all cookies from our Website. If you do not allow cookies, some features and functionality of our Website may not operate optimally.

Visitors who wish to communicate with the Website do so under two conditions: (1) they give their permission to be contacted by the Website; (2) they are subject to any and all “submission” provisions of the Terms of Use, Purchase Agreement, and this Privacy Policy.

XIV. CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS
It is the intent of the Privacy Policy to comply with California’s Privacy Laws. Various provisions throughout this Privacy Policy address its requirements. In summary, you must presume that we collect electronic information from all Visitors. However, this information is not usually personally identifiable. If you purchase a product or service via this Website (and thereby become covered by the Act), the Purchase Agreement you electronically sign prior to the completion of a purchase allows the Website to collect and archive all the personal information you provide and to transmit and/or transfer that personal information to third parties, including joint venture partners, affiliates, and marketing organizations.
California residents who provide personal information (as defined in California’s “Shine the Light” statute) to obtain products or services for personal, family, or household use have the right to request and obtain from the Website, once every calendar year, information about the personal information we shared with other businesses, if any, for marketing purposes. This information would include the categories of personal information and the names and addresses of those businesses with which we shared such personal information for the immediately prior calendar year. To obtain this information, please send us an email to: support@edrush.com, and include “California Privacy Rights” in the subject line.
Other provisions of the California Privacy Laws may exempt this Website from complying. While we take measures to ensure that outside parties do not have access to any information we have about you, we do not warranty that outside parties will not breach our system and thus gain access to your information. (You should know that merchant service providers do not allow us access to your credit card information.) This Privacy Policy also is subject to periodic change without notice to you. You are required to read it prior to using the Website each time. By interacting with the Website you agree to the terms and conditions of the active Privacy Policy.
